Vintage Card Catalog

A couple of months ago, I saw an amazing card file display at "Me & Mrs. Jones" (see post here). I told everyone that I was on the lookout for one and I've been keeping my eyes open since then. Well, I finally stumbled on this one at a garage sale a couple of weeks ago.

I got so excited about painting it that I forgot to take a "before" pic.

Trust me when I say that it wasn't all that pretty before! I brightened this old treasure by using"Duck Egg ASCP" and then a coat of clear wax, followed by dark wax to give it an aged look.

Love the color! I keep seeing these at a local antique mall and they keep calling my name...but I have yet to bring one home! lol! I love what you did to yours! We'd love it if you'd share this at our Home is Where the Heart is! http://www.homesteadsimple.com/home-is-where-the-heart-is-link-it-up-wednesdays-1/
